2023--A Year of Growth and Gratitude

YOU helped us bring lifesaving skills to thousands of people this year!  Whether you donated, volunteered, or told others about us, you helped spread the word that it's OK to talk about depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. You helped someone know that there are people who care and will talk about these tough topics. Thank you!  

Caring about our fellow human beings can be hard. It's easier when we have language to use and the confidence to reach out.  That's what people learn in programs like safeTALK and QPR for adults and teens.  Younger people can learn about reaching out for support and supporting their peers in one of the Erika's Lighthouse programs we offer for schools, youth groups, scouts, and others.

Contact us to talk about scheduling a program for your staff, your group, or yourself!

This is the time of year when we think about directing financial gifts, but we would be remiss if we didn't remember the gifts of time and talent given by our volunteers all year long.  Our volunteers serve generously staffing our resource table and serving on our Board every month of the year.  Some do office tasks and some present programs.  This year, our volunteers have given over 280 hours to the SMP Foundation.  We are extremely grateful to have their partnership, and we know that we could not accomplish all that we do without them alongside us. Thank you to all who volunteer!

On Giving Tuesday, we kicked off the giving season with 22 donations, including someone who joined the monthly giving swarm and three brand new donors!  Your donation is needed and appreciated, and it is tax-deductible. Please support us today.
